Suggest Treatment For Rheumatoid Arthritis

I am taking 2 .5. Mg clonazepam pills at night in combination with 2 15 mg oxycodone pills. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis and have found this to be the minimum amount that makes life bearable. Now my ra DR says I must quit clonazepam. I quit everything slowly taking the last of everything last Easter. I survived, but life without those 2 prescrription is miserable. He said there was a problem with the 2 types of medication. What is the problem? I would pay if I knew there was a possibility of a prescription.

Hello, 

I have studied your case with diligence.

You may need to consult doctor to get those medicine.

You can take dose of methotrexate.
I will advise dose 7.5mg weekly.
You can start combination consulting your treating doctor

NSAIDs, DMARDs (disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs) are sometimes prescribed in severe cases.
Newer biologics have role in RA. 

There is good role of diet and achieve correction through it, for details you can directly contact on my profile
